Reviews describe Café Pistache as a solid spot for coffee and breakfast burritos, with a busy lunch crowd where arriving early helps secure better seats. The neighborhood feels cool to walk through, and the space is filled with natural light, with cozy seating and a pleasant outdoor area around a fireplace. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the staff friendly, and service can be fast even when crowded. The cafe earns praise for delicious coffee, good lunch options, and a strong aroma, and many reviewers say they look forward to returning to work or study there. Some notes mention the place being small and sometimes hard to find a seat, occasional slow moments at the cash register, and that the coffee can be a bit pricey for the quality. Sweet treats and drinks such as macchiatos and matcha are well received, and overall Café Pistache is described as a gem with a clean, stylish setting on the south shore and a vibe that invites guests to linger.
very good coffee & breakfast burrito. The place is pretty busy at lunchtime, arrive earlier to have better seats. Overall good experience. The neighborhood is cool to walk in, old St-Lambert (or something) feels like the Back To The Future city centre!
Loved this coffee spot in Montreal. Service was impressively fast even though it was busy, the whole place smelled amazing, & it was filled with beautiful natural light. Such a warm & inviting atmosphere ,I'll definitely be back.
Pour un café pour apportez, soyez sûr de laisser un pourboire sinon vous allez attendre très très longtemps...au point de devoir leur rappeler que vous avez payé pour un café! Au moins,il était bon.
Somme toute c'est un super endroit pour aller prendre un café & étudier! Malheureusement c'est quand même petit alors ne vous attendez pas toujours à avoir une place.
J'ai pris un Macchiato lait de Macadame - un de meilleurs cafés que j'ai bu. Bien balancé, légerement acidulé, tres intéressant. Il faisait chaud dans la place, mais l'ambiance était tres bien.
J'ai goûté un matchaï. C'était vraiment très bon. Le service est rapide & agréable.
J'y suis passée de jour la semaine, il y avait plein de gens qui travaillaient, la musique était juste bien. J'y retournerai certainement m'y installer pour travailler en dehors de la maison.

On adore ce café. Toutefois, il arrive régulièrement que le service à la caisse soit froid & bête. C'est dommage, ce lieu est une pépite. Un petit sourire & un regard pourraient tout changer. :-)
